These are widely available at most parts suppliers - OPG, Year one, maybe Fusick.
Mine came from Year one, a Kee brand top.

I have a complete black top that was never installed. It came with a car I am restoring but the top is a little dirty and it was wrinkled from not being folded correctly so I didn't use it. It should clean up to look pretty new as long as you don't mind a little work and the wrinkles should steam out. It may not look 100% perfect but should be pretty good. If this fits your needs let me know. I'll sell it for about 40-50% of the price of a new one if you are interested. I have the top, the back window (glass) the rear trim piece that goes across the top, the padding and the strips that go with the padding. I believe the front windlace is there too. I think that's everything.

Yeah, I just wanted to see if I can get a deal somewhere. Fusick has them in their catalog for around $300. My wife has my on a budget this year.

Quick question...what else is needed? Is there a liner that I'll need too? Are they pretty easy to attach yourself?

Not real easy to put on and get all the wrinkles out, especially if its cold out.

I had a professional install mine and you need to know what you are doing. This likely isn't the type of project you could just jump in and do if you never did something like this before. Fitting everything correctly takes time to do. The person that installed mine uses an industrial steamer and that takes the wrinkles out. I was fortunate that I coaxed the installer to do it at my house/shop so I got to watch. Like I said....let the pros do this work.
